The Sasquatch Rougher/Finisher
He's big. He's ugly. He's hairy and smelly with musky undertones. Built to rain down hellfire on most materials.
Every shop has that one tool rep who says, “Yeah, my tools aggressive.”
Cute but I don't think so Scooter. The Sasquatch Rougher/Finisher from Gorilla Mill is an anomaly and it makes those other so called “aggressive” tools, pee themselves a little bit. This thing crawled out of the back country, dragging a trail of blue chips and broken endmills behind it. It smells like victory with a certain musty-ness to it. It’s not just a rougher. It’s a twin-personality emotional gangster like your old lady.
Here’s where it gets disrespectful to the rest of the industry. The roughing flutes are a few tenths larger than the finishing flutes. You heard me... your ears aren't flapping over. Now let that sink in. The roughing flutes are built to hog. Pulverise. Evacuate. Abuse material like a red-headed stepchild. All the while, the finishing flutes are precision-built and act like a wiper giving you a mirror finish. Stay with me here, bro. So while you’re roughing, it’s quietly finishing the job like Seal Team 6 did to Bin Laden.
Nobody else in the industry has anything even close to this geometry. Not even close. Not a “similar concept". Nothing. And if they tell you theirs is... they are a dog-faced lying pony soldier. This thing is its own species.
Squatchy McSassy Face doesn't care about your so-called "Tool Specialists'" feelings. It's time to nut up or shut up buttercup. Two flutes are purpose-built for roughing. Two flutes are purpose-built for finishing. No compromised geometry. No marketing bullshit. Actual functional separation of duties. It’s like sending a UFC fighter and a neurosurgeon into the cut at the same time. Cats and dogs living together, MASS HYSTERIA!
Also, don't baby it! Stop being a little bee-yotch and let it rock!
